Management in the context of dog training. We're talking about managing the dog's ability to engage in behaviors that you don't like, managing their access or their freedom, essentially managing their ability to manage choices that you would rather them not make so that you can guide their behavior into a better direction and form better habits over time through other straightforward training methods. The reality is that we've chosen to take an animal that is capable and naturally inclined to do a lot of destructive and other unwanted behaviors and if we don't take the time to show them that those aren't as valuable, or show them that there are areas, toys, and activities that they can do or that we will offer a dedicated time to give them that outlet, then they will take any opportunity available.
